I've never even looked at it. Vine was pretty cool but then it died, Periscope was neat, but I dunno, something about Tiktok feels predatory, how addictive it is (from what I've seen of others using it).
Plus while they're all as bad as each other, I still trust China less than Microsoft with my stuff, so yeah. I'm just not interested in it and don't really see the appeal for myself. But I see why it's popular and it's not like, terrible, as a concept.
I'm bothered that the app is 2gb.
why?
Spyware takes up space, comrade.
Why can't more of that be patched out via ReVanced or similar? Or is it so integral to the platform itself?
